PCp-CgH Cl) -j results in the quantitative production of -(py)Ru-(bpy)2N0J+ on the surface. The acid-base and redox steps are key elements in the catalytic sequence in Scheme 2. Oxidation of -(py)RuII(bpy>2N02+ to Ru1 in acetonitrile containing the phosphine, acetate ion, and a little water resulted in sustained catalytic currents although the catalysis is not persistent because of slow solvolysis of the nitro group to give -(py)Ru(bpy)2(013-CN) 2+. 

The acetal 3 has been used to access the alcohol 1 in a straightforward way (Scheme 5.2). The first step is a diastereoselective lithiation of compound 3, which is directed in only one position on the substimted Cp ring by the acetal moiety. Electrophilic quenching of the lithiated intermediate by Ph2PCl yields a diaste-reoisomerically pure phosphine-acetal which can be efficiently hydrolyzed under acidic conditions to yield the aldehyde (5 )-4 [42,43]. The desired alcohol could be obtained after reduction by NaBH4 and protection of the phosphine by Sg. 

P,0 ligands have seldom been used in asymmetric aUylic substitution [94—98] but have already proved to be good hgands for this reaction. We therefore tested phosphine acetal ligands 19, which combine planar chirality and central chirality.

Allylic ester rearrangement is catalyzed by both Pd(II) and Pd(0) compounds, but their catalyses are different mechanistically. Allylic rearrangement of allylic acetates takes place by the use of Pd(OAc>2-Ph3P [Pd(0)-phosphine] as a catalyst[492,493]. An equilibrium mixture of 796 and 797 in a ratio of 1.9 1.0 was obtained[494]. The Pd(0)-Ph3P-catalyzed rearrangement is explained by rr-allylpalladium complex formation[495]. 

Dimerization is the main path. However, trimerization to form 1.3,6,10-dodecatetraene (15) takes place with certain Pd complexes in the absence of a phosphine ligand. The reaction in benzene at 50 C using 7r-allylpalladium acetate as a catalyst yielded 1,3,6,10-dodecatetraene (15) with a selectivity of 79% at a conversion of 30% based on butadiene in 22 h[ 19,20]. 1,3,7-Octatriene (7) is dimerized to 1,5,7,10.15-hexadecapentaene (16) with 70% selectivity by using bis-rr-allylpalladium. On the other hand. 9-allyl-l,4,6.12-tridecatetraene (17) is formed as the main product when PI13P is added in a 1 1. ratio[21]. 

The unsaturated c.vo-enol lactone 17 is obtained by the coupling of propargylic acetate with 4-pentynoic acid in the presence of KBr using tri(2-furyl)-phosphine (TFP) as a ligand. The reaction is explained by the oxypalladation of the triple bond of 4-pentynoic acid with the ailenyipailadium and the carbox-ylate as shown by 16, followed by reductive elimination to afford the lactone 17. The ( -alkene bond is formed because the oxypalladation is tnins addition[8].

Solvent Extraction Reagents. Solvent extraction is a solution purification process that is used extensively in the metallurgical and chemical industries. Both inorganic (34,35) and organic (36) solutes are recovered. The large commercial uses of phosphine derivatives in this area involve the separation of cobalt [7440-48-4] from nickel [7440-02-0] and the recovery of acetic acid [61-19-7] and uranium [7440-61-1]. 

In a similar appHcation, Cape Industries has announced its intention to commission a solvent extraction plant to recover acetic acid from an effluent generated at its dimethyl terephthalate [120-61-6] faciHty (Wilmington, North Carolina) (44,45). The plant was commissioned in Eebmary 1995. In this case, the solvent will be CYANEX 923 extractant [100786-00-3], CYANEX 923 is also a phosphine oxide, but unlike TOPO is a Hquid and can be used without a diluent (46,47). This has the benefit of reducing plant size, capital, and operating costs. 

A Belgian patent (178) claims improved ethanol selectivity of over 62%, starting with methanol and synthesis gas and using a cobalt catalyst with a hahde promoter and a tertiary phosphine. At 195°C, and initial carbon monoxide pressure of 7.1 MPa (70 atm) and hydrogen pressure of 7.1 MPa, methanol conversions of 30% were indicated, but the selectivity for acetic acid and methyl acetate, usehil by-products from this reaction, was only 7%. Ruthenium and osmium catalysts (179,180) have also been employed for this reaction. The addition of a bicycHc trialkyl phosphine is claimed to increase methanol conversion from 24% to 89% (181).

Codeposition of silver vapor with perfluoroalkyl iodides at -196 °C provides an alternative route to nonsolvated primary perfluoroalkylsilvers [272] Phosphine complexes of trifluaromethylsilver are formed from the reaction of trimethyl-phosphme, silver acetate, and bis(trifluoromethyl)cadmium glyme [755] The per-fluoroalkylsilver compounds react with halogens [270], carbon dioxide [274], allyl halides [270, 274], mineral acids and water [275], and nitrosyl chloride [276] to give the expected products Oxidation with dioxygen gives ketones [270] or acyl halides [270] Sulfur reacts via insertion of sulfur into the carbon-silver bond [270] (equation 188)... 

AC2O or AcCl, Pyr, DMAP, 24-80°, 1-40 h, 72-95% yield. The use of DMAP increases the rate of acylation by a factor of lO. These conditions acylate most alcohols, including tertiary alcohols. The use of DMAP (4-A,A-dimethylaminopyridine) as a catalyst to improve the rate of esterification is quite general and works for other esters as well, but it is not effective with hindered anhydrides such as pivaloic anhydride. The phosphine i (48-99% yield) and Bu3P have been developed as active acylation catalysts for acetates and benzoates. 

In 1996, consumption in the western world was 14.2 tonnes of rhodium and 3.8 tonnes of iridium. Unquestionably the main uses of rhodium (over 90%) are now catalytic, e.g. for the control of exhaust emissions in the car (automobile) industry and, in the form of phosphine complexes, in hydrogenation and hydroformylation reactions where it is frequently more efficient than the more commonly used cobalt catalysts. Iridium is used in the coating of anodes in chloralkali plant and as a catalyst in the production of acetic acid. It also finds small-scale applications in specialist hard alloys. 

Notable examples of general synthetic procedures in Volume 47 include the synthesis of aromatic aldehydes (from dichloro-methyl methyl ether), aliphatic aldehydes (from alkyl halides and trimethylamine oxide and by oxidation of alcohols using dimethyl sulfoxide, dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, and pyridinum trifluoro-acetate the latter method is particularly useful since the conditions are so mild), carbethoxycycloalkanones (from sodium hydride, diethyl carbonate, and the cycloalkanone), m-dialkylbenzenes (from the />-isomer by isomerization with hydrogen fluoride and boron trifluoride), and the deamination of amines (by conversion to the nitrosoamide and thermolysis to the ester). Other general methods are represented by the synthesis of 1 J-difluoroolefins (from sodium chlorodifluoroacetate, triphenyl phosphine, and an aldehyde or ketone), the nitration of aromatic rings (with ni-tronium tetrafluoroborate), the reductive methylation of aromatic nitro compounds (with formaldehyde and hydrogen), the synthesis of dialkyl ketones (from carboxylic acids and iron powder), and the preparation of 1-substituted cyclopropanols (from the condensation of a 1,3-dichloro-2-propanol derivative and ethyl-... 

A solution of 1.5 mol equiv of butyllithium in hexane is added to 1.5 mol equiv of a 1 M solution of hexabutylditin in THF at 0 C under nitrogen, and the mixture is stirred for 20 min. The solution is cooled to — 78 °C and a solution of 1.5 mol equiv of diethylaluminum chloride in toluene is added. After stirring for 1 h at — 78 °C, a solution of 0.05 mol equiv of [tetrakis(triphenyl)phosphine]palladium(0) in THF is added followed by a solution of the allyl acetate in THF. The mixture is warmed to r.t., and stirred until the allyl acetate has reacted (TLC). The solution is cooled to 0°C, and an excess of aq ammonia slowly added. After an aqueous workup, the products arc isolated and purified by flash chromatography on silica gel using 1 % triethylamine in the solvent to avoid acid-induced loss of stannane. 

It has 6-coordination with a chelating acetate [106] and may be converted (reversibly) into Ru(OAc)2(PPh3)3, which has the/ac-configuration with one monodentate and one bidentate acetate. It is fluxional at room temperature but at —70°C the phosphines are non-equivalent on the NMR timescale [107],... 

Several laboratory explns have occurred when using the reaction between P trichloride and acetic acid to form acetyl chloride. Poor heat control probably caused formation of phosphine (Ref 2). Two later explns may have been due to ingress of air and combustion of traces of phosphine (Ref 8). Al powder burns in P trichloride vapor (Ref 4) K ignites and molten Na explds on contact (Ref 3). Each drop of chromyl chloride added to well-cooled P trichloride produces a hissing noise, incandescence, and sometimes an expln (Ref 5). It reacts with fluorine with incandescence (Ref 1), and with ignition...
